Geisel Vinothek

Our unique Vinothek restaurant celebrates Italian and Bavarian cuisine, for a blend of tastes and cultures. Our love of good food and good wine is apparent when you walk in our door. Our extensive and impressive wine list includes up to 20 wines by the glass, so you can enjoy wine samplings that reflect your specific tastes. Or discuss your preferences with our staff, all wine lovers themselves. Like the Geisel Family, we source our food from special family-run producers, so you enjoy ingredients that define our commitment to quality and regional freshness. In the same way our buttery-smooth San Daniele ham, for example, is special to the Vinothek, so are many of our wines that we source from small, privately held wineries. Our homemade pasta complements our extensive wine list and our menu changes weekly, to celebrate the freshest ingredients available.Geisel's Vinothek demonstrates that family commitment to superlative products and service make for an unm

Munich Central

We chose Excelsior for their excellent location, near train station & tours leaving town. While staff was very friendly and helpful I felt overall, that the hotel was a bit tired in need of some deep cleaning and touch-up work. Compared to similar hotels we stayed in Germany, Excelsior didn't provide in room coffee or even a bottle of water. Rooms were well cleaned but very stuffy, hotel provided an oscillating fan which basically moved the warm air around.

Good location, very good service, somewhat noisy (room 323) just a little bit dirty

There were a few stains on the carpet and the chairs. It is also noisy because it is next to a quite transited street. Other than that, it was a good experience. Service was very good. It is close to the train station and the subway, and also next to a grocery store, coffee shops and restaurants so it is convenient.

enjoyed our stay

Hotel is in a great location, nice shopping and tourist area. Hotel staff couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. Only warning is to check if your breakfast is included or not. We were charged 20 euros a person (4 of us) even though my wife only had coffee one morning. (Great buffet btw but for $20 euros?). Besides that the hotel itself is highly recommended by us as a stay.

Old world charm close to train station

We wanted a hotel that was located close to the central train station in Munich, and also within walking distance of the Oktoberfest venue. This hotel is perfect from a location standpoint. It is also located near the main pedestrian malls and the Munich Rathaus/Glockenspiel. We were very pleasantly surprised with the friendliness of the staff, the room comfort, and amenities, including a very fast internet. We would definitely stay at this hotel again.
